It seeks to provide a forum for academics, practitioners and activists from public health, human rights and related fields to explore how rights-based approaches can be used to address health inequities and promote health as a human right. The journal focuses rigorous scholarly analysis on the conceptual foundations and challenges of rights discourse and action in relation to health.
